Geocache Description:

Latest in the Team Klutz series of cow-themed caches.  All of them are micros in fairly typical hiding spots, with only some minor twists.

I have had the name for this particular hide in our cow series for quite a while, but I had a specific location type in mind.  I specifically wanted a hide near a major interstate.

Way back after my brother finished his senior year of high school, he and his buddies went on a several-week road trip through a number of western states. Their journey included a lot of secondary highways,with little or no radio service.   Since this was in a car with no CD or tape player (for those who remember tape players in cars), and LONG before iPods or DVD players, they took turns telling long,convoluted stories to one another to pass the time.

One of these stories involved real cows and fake cows, and how you could tell real cows because they looked at you as you would drive past.  The fake cows just kept pretending to eat, and didn't watch you.  The guys couldn't remember the point of this story when they got back, but they would still laugh about the "real cows and fake cows" for years afterwards.

So, here's the point.  This cache container is placed near an interstate.  It, in itself, isn't all that exciting, but the logs can be.  So, especially for the long distance travelers - tell us your story.  It doesn't have to be a real story - made up stories are fine.  But tell us a story, for the road.
